I forgot my login - but the above post is from me...
I did some of my aquatic training with Peggy and she is a remarkable teacher. I posted this because this type of a course in unusual and unusually great and if your therapist was interested in aquatic therapy (many kids with bpi get aquatic therapy) then pass this to him/her. It is NOT specific to BPI.
